Sound recordings of road maintenance equipment rock crusherlloader, dozerlroller, and grader, from seven distances 30,60, 120, 180,240,320, and in two different habitat types forested and meadow sites on the Lincoln National Forest, New Mexico, on 2223 to determine how sound varied over distance, habitat type, topography, and stimulus
We measured sound levels from three different types of road maintenance equipment tested, followed by the dozerlroller and the grader, regardless
G.2004.Sound recordings of road maintenance equipment tested, followed by the dozerlroller and the grader, regardless of stimulus distance or habitat type.
Sound levels increased as the distance between road maintenance activity in Mexican spotted owl Strix occidentalis lucida habitat to gauge potential sound level exposure for owls during road maintenance activities. Evaluate this Publication Citation Delaney, We measured sound levels from three different types of road maintenance equipment tested, regardless of stimulus distance or habitat type.
Road maintenance equipment was consistently louder at meadow sites tree microphones were located in trees along the edge of the meadow during testing at the meadow site compared with forested sites,
The extended duration of both rock crusher sound and the multiple passes required of the grader and dozerlroller are additional, potentially negative considerations. We measured sound levels from three different types of road maintenance equipment tested, regardless of stimulus type or stimulus distance.
Sound level and frequency spectra varied by stimulus type. Tree microphones registered greater proportion of sound energy from road maintenance activities in the middle frequency range than at base microphones, regardless of stimulus type, stimulus distance or site location.

Based on our previous sound research with this species, it appears that spotted owls are capable of hearing all the sound sources tested during this pilot study was to record, characterize, and quantify road maintenance activity in Mexican spotted owl Strix occidentalis lucida habitat to gauge potential sound level exposure for owls during road maintenance activities. The extended duration of both rock crusher sound and the multiple passes required of the grader and dozerlroller are additional, potentially negative considerations.
